Networking with GREEN pays big dividends!


Are you planning on attending any networking events this fall? The next few months are packed with opportunities to connect with new business at live events. Trade shows, conferences, workshops, fundraisers and chambers of commerce monthly meetings are just a few ways to meet new people who can take your business to a new level.

We've all heard the saying "You never get a second chance to make a first impression." It's true and you can make it work for you. After the small talk, what do you leave in the mind of your new "friend"? If you've said the right stuff, listened well to what they had to say and opened the door for future communication, you did well. But what did you leave with them to enhance their memory of you? Was it the same old business card that just get put in a pile or something different, something that is memorable and will have a lasting impact?


If you are including a green image for your business, have you considered green promotional products? Many of the usual promotional products now have green options, like memo pads from recycled paper or biodegradable pens. Instead of branded labels on bottles of water, consider a reuseable stainless steel water bottle. If keychains with flashlights are working for your business brand, why not get a solar powered flashlight keychain???

Your business is going to get promotional products. It's in the budget. So here's an opportunity to create a positive impact with the dollars spent and the message, why not go green?

Contact me with questions or for a quote on a wide selection of green promotional products.
